About This Book

A grand tenth century love affair told by a beautiful lady-in-waiting in an ancient Japanese Pillow Book, as stylistically perfect and lovely as light glittering among reeds on the Inland Sea at evening.

Or is it a brilliant fake by the lovesick archeologist who pens the Introduction.... The presentation of the setting, an astonishingly recreated tenth century Japan, is as precise and evocative as the finest Japanese brush painting.
